Here Is Janelle Monáe’s ‘The Age Of Pleasure Tour’ Setlist

Janelle Monáe put herself all the way out there with The Age Of Pleasure , their June 9 ( yes, 6/9 ) album that Uproxx reviewed as “a comforting space for Monáe and her beloved ‘Fandroids’ to live out loud.”

Uproxx’s Aaron Williams additionally contextualized why Monáe’s bold rollout was necessary, encapsulating “the story of America, of being Black, of being queer, of being non-binary, and always fighting to be seen, to be heard, and to not just survive in a hostile world but thrive.”

Monáe is giving their people several opportunities for indulgence with The Age Of Pleasure Tour . The North American trek started in Seattle, Washington on Wednesday, August 30. According to setlist.fm , Monáe kicked it all off with “ Float .”

Monáe and their openers will next visit Vancouver, BC on Thursday, August 31, and Portland, Oregon on Saturday, September 2. The leg’s finale is scheduled for October 18 at YouTube Theater in Inglewood, California.

See all of the remaining dates here , and prepare ahead of time by reviewing the purported setlist below.

1. “Float” 2. “Champagne Sh*t” 3. “Phenomenal” 4. “Haute” 5. “Oooh La La” 6. “Django Jane” 7. “Q.U.E.E.N.” 8. “Electric Lady” 9. “ Lipstick Lover ” 10. “Water Slide” 11. “Know Better” 12. “Paid In Pleasure” 13. “Pynk” 14. “Yoga” 15. “I Like That” 16. “Only Have Eyes 42” 17. “Make Me Feel” (encore) 18. “Tightrope” (encore)

Janelle Monáe Is Living Her Best Luxurious Life In Europe

Singer Janelle Monáe is one of many celebrities who have been living it up on vacation in Europe. The Yoga singer has been sharing images via social media since July of her lounging on the beach and pursuing on a yacht .

“My target hired a private investigator to take these of me. I found them in a slightly bent, faint coffee-stained manila envelope on his nightstand. Naturally, I decided to turn them into summer postcards. From me to you with love, Jane 💋,” she captured the image.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Janelle Monáe (@janellemonae)

Monáe wore a red two-piece bikini, showing off her toned and curvy figure. She also rocked a complementary scarf and bright red lipstick over her head, embodying a classic look.

In a previous post, the singer posted a video of her posing on the yacht wearing the same ensemble.  

“I decided to take one last ride on my target’s boat… I thought it’d be a kind gesture to invite his mistress to join for helping me take him down 🥂💋🎯🔪” she wrote on the caption.

Some fans speculated that based on the captions Janelle has been posting, she may be soft-launching a new project or potentially featuring in the next James Bond movie.

“JANE BOND!! Speaking it into existence,” one fan commented on the image. 

Prior to serving looks in Italy, Monae also posed a video  in Greece where she posed on a yacht in a gold two-piece bikini. The Make Me Feel artist included a witty voice over narrating her trip to the Aegean sea. 

“Currently hatching my eggs in the middle of the Aegean Sea🇬🇷,” she captioned the video. Fans in the comments praised the singer for her voice over and continued to support the idea that she would make an ideal Bond girl. 

We love to see Black women traveling the world, enjoying the finest luxuries and doing so in style.

Janelle Monáe Is a Vision in a Molten Black Gown at the 2024 Grammys

Another playful look from Monáe

In unsurprising fashion, the trendsetter totally caught our attention in a custom-made Giorgio Armani Privé gown. The unique inky-black creation features a bustier bodice, with a deep neckline embroidered with black paillettes and a silver beaded trim, as well as black and silver crystals arranged in a floral shape along the waist. Meanwhile, Monáe’s makeup was done with products from L’Oreal Paris.

We’ll be thinking about this fit while Monáe waits to see if they’ll take home the prizes for Album of the Year and Best Progressive R&B Album. Both nominations are for their fourth studio album, The Age of Pleasure .

“I wanted to create a soundtrack to our lifestyle,” Monáe told the Associated Press in July 2023. “I think this album, like all my albums, reflect[s] exactly where I am at that time. Each album will let you know where I was in my evolution process, what things I had to unlearn, what things I learned. I love that. I love that you can always look at an artist working, sort of see what they were on at that time.”

Monáe has been nominated for a Grammy for Album of the Year twice, for their 2018 solo LP Dirty Computer and for their appearance on Fun.’s 2012 album Some Nights . But despite seven nominations to date, if Monáe wins tonight, this will be their first time ever walking out with a Grammy.

Montreux Jazz Festival 2024: Sublime showcase of musical skill on the shores of Lake Geneva

Eclectic programming and sharper-than-sharp audiences cement this festival as the ultimate mecca for music lovers

There are few riffs more recognisable than the four-note sequence of ‘Smoke On The Water’. It’s been 53 years since a fire destroyed Montreux Casino during a Frank Zappa concert; a scene which members of Deep Purple watched from afar and would later immortalise in what is now one of the most iconic rock tracks going.

Fast forward to 2024 and the 58th Montreux Jazz Festival, where the band played the same riff to close their headline slot on the brand new lakeside stage. Locals peered from their balconies and merch-wearing fans stamped their feet in unison. It rounded up an evening which saw Don Airey scuttle up and down the keyboard in psychedelic-tinged improv and Alice Cooper bring out a red tail boa during a terrifying theatrical shock-rock set. In other words: just another night at Montreux, a festival which, these days, is just as well known for its varied, enviable programming as much as its rich musical history.  

And – just like tonight – history is always in the making. Walking round the site on the shores of Lake Geneva, you can see it, hear it, feel it. Up the road from the lake stage, the rebuilt casino displays notes from Roger Glover’s iconic riff as decoration on its balustrade. There’s the glinting gold statue of Freddie Mercury, who used to live in the town, looking out to shore. You’ll find a piano from Queen’s studio in the late festival founder Claude Nobs’ mountain top chalet. 

Then, there’s the legacy of David Bowie, who was a festival regular and lived in neighbouring Blonay, as well as the likes of Miles Davis, who played on nine separate occasions. Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin and Elton John are among the other legends who have graced Montreux’s stages. If you play here, you’re following some very big footsteps – which is why, to this day, the festival maintains its reputation as one of the most prestigious global stages for serious musicians, a place where internationally-renowned artists have shown their skills alongside future superstars. 

Away from the festival, the town of Montreux itself is as charming as they come. Walk up the road to the old town, where you’ll find cafés serving up Swiss cheese fondue to fantastical views, buskers on cobbled corners and boutiques selling crafts and curated second-hand clothes. We were lucky enough to take a cooling dip in Lake Geneva in nearby town Vevey, a quick train journey away – you can also hop on the train to Rivaz, where Lavaux Vinorama offers guided tours of their dramatic, swooping vineyards with on site-wine tasting. That’s to say, there’s plenty around to turn a ticket into a proper holiday. 

If you’re not a jazz fan, don’t let the name put you off. The festival was conceived in 1967 while Nobs was working as director of Montreux’s tourism office, and though it started off as a purely jazz festival, by the seventies it had opened up to include blues, soul, and rock artists. These days, you’re just as likely to see rock royalty like Deep Purple as you are contemporary Afropopstar Tyla or nineties hip-hop legend André 3000. Seeing all of the era-defining names on one line-up will make you blink twice – where else can you see Kraftwerk, Raye, The Smashing Pumpkins, Janelle Monáe, Barry Can’t Swim, Duran Duran, Sting and Jungle over the course of two and a bit weeks? 

‘Quite a lot of British festivals seem to be in a similar rut – yeah, you’ve got Glastonbury, which is out on its own – but a lot of events can feel quite homogenised,’ says drummer Ed Lay from Birmingham-born indie rockers Editors, ahead of their animated 45-minute slot before The Smashing Pumpkins closed out the night. ‘To be out of that little bubble and do something like this is what bands really enjoy.’  The band last played the festival 11 years ago. ‘It felt quite proper – I think this will feel more like a big festival gig,’ says Lay about the Scène du Lac. The stage is new for this year: replacing the convention centre while it is closed for refurbishment, which usually houses two headline shows each evening. The capacity has also been upped by 1000, bringing the total to 250,000 spectators, and the set-up will remain the same for next year. 

Up the road, you’ll find the casino stage, which hosts two additional ticketed evening shows in a half-seated, half-standing set-up (Mahalia and Yussef Dayes are playing at the same time as Deep Purple and Alice Cooper). There’s certainly a level of Swiss polish to it all: if you’re looking for grittiness, this is perhaps not for you, but there’s charm in other ways. The site is immaculately clean and crowds sit on the floor, calm and spread out, while waiting for acts to arrive on the stage. There’s no pushing, shoving or mosh-pitting here – and even the Alice Cooper fans, some clad in white face paint and black wigs, are tame.

Away from the ticketed stages, the rest of the festival – a huge 80 percent of it – is free. You’ll be just as likely to bump into curious locals and uni students from elsewhere in Europe as headliners booked for the ticketed shows, walking around to explore the trusted programming. Street food stands snake their way up the lakeside path, where you will also find bars, buskers and pop-up stages. 

A must-visit is the three-storeyed Lake House, which plays entertainment from 5pm until 5am, ushering in a previously unseen after-hours edge. Downstairs, you’ll find an old school, table-and-chairs set up where those brave enough cut their teeth in the legendary jam sessions; upstairs, you’ll find a library, screening room and the top floor dance floor and balcony, where DJ collectives play until the early hours and young folk come to party. On Saturday night, SND Collective, hailing from Switzerland and Canada, mix sped-up hip hop with neo-funk, dancehall and afrobeats; downstairs, Spanish bass sensation Vincen García seduced the crowd into a groove with his funked-up fingerboard improv (think: Vulfpeck meets Thundercat). 

The festival is, above all, a celebration. ‘It has that international air about it,’ says Editors keyboardist Elliot Williams. ‘It feels like a convention rather than concerts – a meeting of creative minds, really. It feels like an honour to play here. You see the Montreux Festival logo everywhere – it’s iconic.’ You can feel a deep sense of expectation here, from both the crowds and the artists; an understanding that Montreux is as important to making the next generation of musicians as it is to cementing the legends as we know them. As ever, it has its ear to the ground.

The 59th edition of the Montreux Jazz Festival is scheduled for 4 to 19 July 2025. Time Out travelled as guests of Montreux Jazz Festival. Our reviews and recommendations have been editorially independent since 1968. For more, see our editorial guidelines .
